A device, method, and program are provided to prevent an increase of the probability of erroneous correction for a burst error having a length exceeding detection capability even if high correction capability is selected for a random error. In one embodiment, an apparatus corrects errors in a product code block including C1 codes in a row direction and C2 codes in a column direction. First, a C1 decoder performs C1 correction for each of an even C1 including even-numbered bytes in the C1 code and an odd C1 including odd-numbered bytes in the C1 code. Next, a C2 decoder performs erasure correction in C2 correction in the case where any one of the C1 correction results for the even C1 and the odd C1 is correction failure, and where one of the results is the 3-byte correction while the other one is the correction failure or the 3-byte correction. |
